EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS

If they manage to find a solution to the problem, it looks like a decent Lens. End of June for a possible solution - good jobs theres plenty of distractions on the TV to pass the time.

To Customers Who Use the EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens:

Thank you very much for your patronage of our products.

We have recently become aware of a phenomenon in which some images captured by the EF 70-300 f/4-5.6 IS USM lens appear in insufficient resolution. This phenomenon may be seen at the edge of the frame at the 300mm setting when the camera is held vertically. We have been studying the symptoms of this phenomenon in order to determine its precise cause and to develop an appropriate remedy. We will inform you on this Web site as soon as this remedy has been decided, which, at this point should be by the end of June 2006.

We are very sorry for the inconvenience this phenomenon represents for customers who use this lens and appreciate your patience as we work to resolve it.

...Doesn't sound very nice :(
 
anyone know what they are doing about it? replacements?? repairs?? Free L lens upgrade :D

Hmmm will have to try a few test shots on mine
 
This has been know about for quite a while and discussed on FM and DPReview. Essentially some comies of the lens a very blurry when you take pics in portrait mode.

I can't say I've had any issues with mine but I'm a very casual photographer and don't use mine much. That said it's my favourite lens!
